Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
H. de Bruijn et al. 1980Tamias eviensis teeth are similar in size and proportions to those of the extant T. sibericus and the Pliocene T. orlovi Sulimski, 1964. T. eviensis is characterized by the absence of a parasyl in P4, the relatively well developed hypocone in M1-2, the presence of a small protoconule in M1-3 and the well developed anteroconid in m1-3.
